Section 8
Digital student records to be maintained for ten years
What the Bill says
Every centre must maintain detailed digital records of enrolled students — educational progress, aptitude and record of learning abilities — in the format prescribed by the Government, and must maintain such records for at least the past ten years from commencement of the Act.
Why it matters
Reads as requiring ten years of past records that most centres never kept in digital form. Retention of minors' academic and aptitude data for a decade also needs to be squared with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023.
